Cocaine Cowboys 2: Hustlin' With the Godmother (2008)
Member Rating:  
In this documentary sequel to the film that followed the development of the cocaine trade in 1980s-era Miami, filmmaker Billy Corben details the rise of Oakland, CA-based cocaine dealer Charles Cosby, who went from small-time drug slinger to multi-millionaire in a matter of months. Back in the early '90s, Cosby was selling ounces on the street and struggling to survive. Later, after writing a fan letter to "Cocaine Godmother" Griselda Blanco, who was serving a sentence in a federal prison, Cosby and Blanco struck up a lucrative partnership. Just six short months later, Cosby and Blanco were lovers, and the former fan now placed in charge of Blanco's 40-million-dollar a year cocaine business. But over the years, Blanco had earned the nickname "The Black Widow" for her propensity to drain men dry and permanently dispose of them when they ceased to be of use to her. Before long, Blanco becomes obsessed with ensuring that Cosby is faithful to her, and the former small-time drug dealer finally begins to realize that he may have inadvertently gotten in over his head. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

Just like the fist Cocaine Cowboys this is a great film. I definitely recommed this film to anyone who likes movies like "Scareface" and "Blow". Must see the first one first before you watch this one.

I am a fan of the original cc but this sequel sucks due to the inclusion of charles cosby and his self glorifying tales of his dealings with griselda blanco. this guy really wants the world to acknowledge him for being a drug dealer. listen from the opening of this dvd I knew it was going to be something of a completely different nature the original was informative. this entry was basically selling charles cosby and his story. It is obviously charles cosby is trying to get acknowledged like a top selling rapper.

This one for me kept me glued to the seat. With a few slices of pizza and some cold ones this was one of the most entertaining true crime stories I've seen. If you are a fan of History's Gangland, this documentary takes that format to the next level.
